It was my choice. Easier than deciding which set of parents to visit. Got 4 days off new year!

My 3 are all very excited. The lad (6yrs old) has been getting up early every morning & putting the christmas songs cd on for the past 2 weeks now :x

The older I get the more I hate Christmas & its commerciality.

I think Christ should be put back into Christmas & it should only be celebrated by practising Christians, which I am not.

I would be quite happy to sit at home in my vest & Y-fronts on Christmas Day & eat beans on toast.

Bah Humbug!

 

[sellers]

no no no, I'm not into the commercial side, but xmas is about being with all your family and friends. You make the effort to see each other. and then theres also the Guinness

 

[M107]

I'm with Sellers... Family & friends time for me.

With a quiet moment to reflect on those boys & girls that can't be home with their families & to raise a glass to wish them luck.

The only thing I don't like about it is the fact shops get stuff in too early should be one week before christmas not 8 weeks.

We was driving home from school the other day listening to the cd of xmas songs and my 6yr old was singing 'santa claus is coming to town' out the window, 2 people looked at her in disgust!!! so i turned the volume right up on the cd player, smiled and drove off. :^O
